The geese were flying south east, not south west. --Marty From: Marty Schlabach Sent: Friday, December 13, 2024 9:26 AM To: Dave Nutter <nutter.d...@me.com>; CAYUGABIRDS-L <cayugabird...@list.cornell.edu> Subject: RE: [cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese
On Wednesday about 3:30pm in the hamlet of Fayette, Seneca County, I saw several large flocks, perhaps 1,000+, flying south west. Yesterday on the way to Geneva and later Waterloo, we saw large flocks in the fields in several places. An especially large flock near the intersection of route 96a and route 336. --Marty =========================================== Marty Schlabach m...@cornell.edu<mailto:m...@cornell.edu> 8407 Powell Rd. home 607-532-3467 Interlaken, NY 14847 cell 315-521-4315 =========================================== From: bounce-128536714-3494...@list.cornell.edu<mailto:bounce-128536714-3494...@list.cornell.edu> <bounce-128536714-3494...@list.cornell.edu<mailto:bounce-128536714-3494...@list.cornell.edu>> On Behalf Of Dave Nutter Sent: Friday, December 13, 2024 9:18 AM To: CAYUGABIRDS-L <cayugabird...@list.cornell.edu<mailto:cayugabird...@list.cornell.edu>> Subject: [cayugabirds-l] Snow Geese For those who wondered whether the Snow Geese have returned, Reuben Stoltzfus just called me to reassure folks that for the past week tens of thousands of them have been feeding in cornstubble fields from Lodi north through Ovid to the 414-96 split (where another Amish birder he knows counted 30k flying over), and probably beyond. He said there were 5k in the air both northbound and southbound at his farm in Ovid as he spoke. - - Dave Nutter -- Cayugabirds-L List Info: Welcome and Basics<http://www.northeastbirding.com/CayugabirdsWELCOME.htm> Rules and Information<http://www.northeastbirding.com/CayugabirdsRULES.htm> Subscribe, Configuration and Leave<http://www.northeastbirding.com/CayugabirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm> Archives: The Mail Archive<http://www.mail-archive.com/cayugabirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html> Surfbirds<http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/Cayugabirds> ABA<https://www.aba.org/birding-news/> Please submit your observations to eBird<http://ebird.org/content/ebird/>! -- -- (copy & paste any URL below, then modify any text "_DOT_" to a period ".")
